In this edition of The Detroit News' OctoPulse podcast, Ted Kulfan takes a look at the impact of Simon Edvinsson's injury heading into the Olympic break. The podcast guest is Macomb's Brandon Hawkins who is trying to become the first ECHL player to win three straight league MVPs with the Toledo Walleye.

Today's conversation is in two parts. First, we dig into USA Today (formerly Gannett) buying the Detroit News - just a month after a joint operating agreement ended between the two papers and bringing the Detroit Free Press and news under the same ownership umbrella. They say they'll continue as separate publications, but based on the track record of those involved, we have our personal skepticism. We also get into the precarious state of local news in America. Then, a personal conversation on the events over the weekend in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We get into the aftermath, the Orwellian nature of it all, how Norris isn't surprised it happened, and the near death of actual conservatism as a political force in America.

This episode marks the return of the podcast after a long hiatus since the previous summer. The hosts, Mimi and Wonne, are joined by a special "plus one", Mimi's three-month-old son, Landon. The conversation is loose and unfiltered, covering Mimi's experience on maternity leave, the challenges of breastfeeding, and her plans for future sterilization surgery.The dialogue shifts into a deep dive into "street logic," specifically critiquing the lack of business acumen among neighborhood drug dealers and the realities of the "crack era" versus modern drug markets. They also discuss a viral video from Detroit involving a school fight sparked by racial slurs and debate the fine line between "situational awareness" and "victim blaming" following a controversial tweet by social media personality Janise Hart.Chapter Timestamps00:00 – The Return & Introducing the "Plus One" (Landon)12:30 – Maternity Leave & The Realities of Breastfeeding25:45 – Street Economics: Why Most Drug Dealers Fail45:20 – Viral Breakdown: The Detroit High School Fight1:05:15 – Janiese's Tweet: Situational Awareness vs. Victim Blaming1:40:10 – Medical Updates: Hysterectomy & Periods in your 40s1:58:00 – Closing Thoughts & Next Week's ScheduleTo get more of the Hoecially Awkward experience, join our Facebook group to engage with other fans and get exclusive content.

Numerous GA. County commissioners and other concerned stakeholders who want to keep this wildlife refuge in American hands.

On this episode, Donna welcomes new co-host Sam Robinson to Authentically Detroit! They're joined by Graig Donnelly and Aaron Abney of the newly launched Community Owner's Representative Initiative (CORI) to discuss how they're building Detroit's capacity for equitable real estate.The Community Owner's Representative Initiative (CORI) is building Detroit's capacity for equitable real estate development, poised to model a new way forward to deliver impact through technical assistance while training leaders in the field.CORI is a long-term partnership between proxy and CDAD driven by the belief that we all deserve access to beautiful, uplifting spaces — because good design is not a luxury, it is a decision.   They believe that while the current ecosystem of funding, training, and coalition-building has strengthened the capacity of organizations to expand their programming and overall footprint in their communities. We need a systems-level approach to develop and preserve the real estate projects that neighborhoods need to thrive, not just projects that the private market will support.For more information on CORI and to apply to the Quick + Equitable Fund, click here. FOR HOT TAKES:"GENERATIONAL CHANGE HAPPENING": MICHIGAN LAWMAKERS CROSS PATHS AT SHEFFIELD INAUGURATIONGILCHRIST ENDS GUBERNATORIAL CAMPAIGN, LAUNCHES SECRETARY OF STATE BIDSupport the showFollow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Host Saeed Khan talks with feature writer and former Detroit News reporter Jim McFarlin; Mike Stone, aka "Stoney" of 97.1 The Ticket; attorneys Joel Sklar and Steve Fishman; labor and community activist Barb Ingalls; veteran journalist Nancy Derringer; and Deadline Detroit co-founder Allan Lengel.Fishman, a prominent Detroit criminal defense attorney who has defended Detroit cops in court,  breaks down the case involving the ICE agent who fatally shot a mother of three in Minneapolis. He discusses the FBI investigation, efforts to block local investigators from getting involved, and what is likely to happen to the agent.The panel also talks about Nicolás Maduro and his wife being indicted in Brooklyn court and abducted from Venezuela; JFK Jr. and his medical advice; Hamtramck swearing in a new mayor despite pending litigation challenging the results; 2025 marks the lowest murder total in Detroit since 1964; What's the next step for the Tigers with Tarik Skubal? and Schmuck of the Week.

Local media across America is in its most tumultuous moment in decades, and Detroit is at the center of it. From the end of the joint operating agreement between the Free Press and the News, to shifts in public media funding, to the chaos around how you watch the Tigers, Pistons, and Red Wings, there's a lot to sort through. I talk with longtime PR pro and media watcher Matt Friedman of Tanner Friedman Public Relations about what's really happening, what's at stake for Metro Detroiters, and why your media subscriptions matter more than ever. The Rundown: 01:56 - People are confused in today's fast-changing media landscape. 02:58 Detroit's JOA (Joint Operating Agreement) is dissolved and the Detroit News and Free Press are separate now. What does that mean? Matt walks through how joint operating agreements emerged in the 1980s to keep multiple daily papers alive, and how Detroit's JOA kept the News and Freep tied together on the business side while competing in the newsroom for decades. He explains why their recent split into fully separate business and news operations is such a big deal in a market many don't think is "big enough" to support two robust metro newsrooms. We also get into the financial pressures facing local media, how Pittsburgh has lost two papers recently, how the New York Times makes more money and more profit than all of the USAToday/Gannett papers combined, and more.  18:08 The state of PBS and Public Media today: In short, it's not dead. With federal funding clawed back through a budget rescission and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting dissolved, local stations now have to replace that money through philanthropy and memberships, which Detroit has managed so far — but smaller markets may not.  22:57 The local sports TV rights business is a mess right now.  There's real uncertainty about how fans will watch first‑place teams if the parent of the regional sports network can't find a buyer, and that contingency planning is already underway. Plus, might we see some games on free TV?  This was a conversation as a media nerd I was glad to have with someone who has a 360 degree view of the landscape, and I hope you get some value out of it.  If you've got feedback, email me - dailydetroit - at - gmail - dot - com, hit up our contact form, or leave a voicemail at 313-789-3211.

Eagle, the son of legendary broadcaster Ian Eagle, is a play-by-play voice for NBC's return to NBA coverage this year. He talked about the team's 21-5 start, the Bad Boys' identity, J.B. Bickerstaff's influence and the need for another three-point shooter. "I just feel if you could add one more sniper, it just gives you a little bit more insurance when others guys aren't making shots, you can bring someone off the bench," Eagle said on the podcast. "Oklahoma City last year was a little bit different the way they play, but they still have snipers. Isaiah Joe is a guy who can come in and make five 3's and you look back up and say, 'What happened?' "If I'm looking at this team (Pistons), if they could add more guy they can rely on to be a 40-plus percent, three-point shooter, it just gives them a little more insurance down the stretch."

On this episode Donna and Orlando sat down with Sidewalk Detroit Program Director, Augusta Morrison and Earth Futures Fellow, Billy Mark to discuss the Echoes Soundmaps project and how they're advancing public life through the lens of arts, culture, collaborative design and deep engagement with residents. Sidewalk Detroit exists to advance public life and strong social infrastructure through the lens of arts, culture, collaborative design and deep engagement with residents. They practice an inclusive approach to creative city and neighborhood building that combines vision of residents, strategy, and artistic ideation to create engaging spaces, programs and experiences that improve communities across metro-detroit.Echoes Soundmaps are created by placing audio files (voices, rhythms, poems, field recordings) onto specific zones on a digital map, like putting a pin on a google map, and then attaching/ uploading an audio file. Each zone can have its own shape, size, and behavior. These zones become invisible layers of sound over real places. When someone walks through the space with the echoes app, their phone's gps triggers the audio in the zones they enter as they do the sound plays.To learn more about Sidewalk Detroit, click here. FOR HOT TAKES:MICHIGAN OFFICIALS INSIST 2019 AUTO NO-FAULT LAW LOWERED CAR INSURANCE RATES.
